The technology sector grinded to a halt on Tuesday, March 4, 2024, as most artificial intelligence stocks fell lower than in previous days. However, one relatively small name managed to swim against this current.
Yesterday, Airship AI Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AISP) saw its stocks rocket 200% ($4.95) after an announcement the sensor and data-management company had agreed upon a contract with an agency within the United States Department of Justice (DOJ).
At the time of publication, Airship AI stood at $6.69, an improvement of $1.74 (+35.15%) in premarket trading.

Airship AI meets the DOJ
For a bit of context, Airship AI is a leader in AI-driven video, sensor, and data management surveillance solutions. Its contact with an agency within the Justice Department is centered around the company’s Acropolis Enterprise Sensor Management video and data management platform, designed to support emerging public safety and investigative requirements.
In a press release on Tuesday, March 4, Paul Allen, the President of Airship AI noted that:
“This award represents an expansion of a pilot program started with the agency in 2023, validating our ability to meet demanding agency operational and security requirements.”
He added that:
“Equally as exciting is this project represents the second U.S. Government agency to deploy our Acropolis platform in a FedRAMP certified cloud environment, a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services.”
